On the second day, the Australian team batted to meet the Indian team's target but they batted under a lot of pressure from the start. India had given a target of only 185 runs. In order to meet this target, the Australian team lost six important wickets, but so far they have not been able to reach the target. However, I think Australia may be able to meet the target given by India but they will have to lose more wickets and will not be able to give much lead. If the Australian team is unable to give India a lead today, then the hope of winning will be very low. Rather, if Australia loses in the fifth Test match and India wins, then the series result will turn into a draw, so the Australian team will have to bat well to win the series.
India outstanding comeback in bowling was that they all out Australia at 181 runs and started their second inning with just 4-run lead. At the end of day 2, India lost 6 wickets at just 141 runs and led by 145 runs. Beau Webster debut player played an outclassed inning of 57 runs and reached team score to 180 runs. India's bowling performance was amazing. Prasidh Krishna picked three wickets in the first inning by giving only 42 runs, and Muhammad Siraj also picked the three crucial wickets and assisted India in bowling out Australia at 181 runs. India's batting line collapsed at 78 runs in a loss of 4 main wickets, and it was very difficult for them to cross the 200-run target in this test match. Australia is the favorite now to win the match if they restrict India to under 190 runs in the second inning of a test match.
